Cheap Multi Fuel Stoves
Summary: These simple and light-weight stoves burn wood and hexamine tablets as well as gas canisters, and white fuel via a single nozzle. These stoves are popular in colder weather, but they can be noisy and lack simmer control.
Some multi-fuel stoves can burn different types of liquid fuel. The MSR WhisperLite Universal can be used with both white and isobutane fuel canisters.
Optimus Nova
The Optimus Nova is a 7kw multi fuel stove-fuel stove that can be used with various liquid fuels. It features a quick-priming burner as well as an aluminium pump that self-purges and a precise control of the simmer. Its low centre of gravity and wide spreading legs make it a stable stove that can be used on rocky ground. This makes it an ideal stove for group base camps, kayaking, and Arctic camp.
Unlike many other stoves that use liquid fuel, which have a problem of unburned fuel remains in the fuel line and nozzle of the stove, the Optimus Nova has a shut off mechanism that operates by flipping the bottle over. This removes intake hoses from the fuel, and forces them to absorb air which puts out flames and depressurizes bottles.
This is an ingenious solution to an age-old problem and it certainly works. The Nova can be used with a variety of regular fuel bottles that are sealed with an o-ring. This includes MSR bottles. It also comes with a full-featured stove bag that includes separate pockets for spare parts, tools and lubricant, as well as the fuel pump.
This is an excellent backpacking stove that is suitable for use in the UK. It is especially useful for expeditions, where a variety of fuels are required. Its price is also very reasonable when compared to canister stoves that have similar capabilities. Additionally, the Optimus Nova is easy to maintain and a pleasure to use.
Kovea Hydra
The Kovea Hydra multi fuel stove was first marketed in 2010 and has been a popular choice for many backpackers ever since. A few UK backpackers seem to give the stove a lot of attention perhaps because they've been able to catch up with more well-known brands or whatever the latest lightweight stove from China or Korea is, but that doesn't mean that the Hydra isn't still a great stove with its merits.
It's a small and light stove, burning all liquid fuels including white gas and propane butane, using one nozzle. It's a pretty standard stove design, with the burner bell that is bolted to the body, which is then anchored by three support legs that fold out. The pump is situated just above the fuel line, and the generator loop runs around the inlet, and the flame spreader is situated above. The burner itself is a low velocity flame that helps it to be less affected by wind.
It's a remarkably versatile little cooker because it can be used with propane canisters or isobutane canisters. It's easy to simmer on propane or isobutane and burns all types of fuel at a decent level but is a bit slower than other stoves when using white gas.
The instructions for the Hydra are written in English however they were clearly not written by native English speakers. The instructions warn you against using certain kinds of lighter fluid. If you don't follow the instructions correctly, it can cause an accident and land Kovea in legal trouble. Any 7/16ths UNEF-threaded gas canister of a reputable brand will work fine.
Primus OmniLite Ti
The Primus Omnilite Ti is a excellent choice for those looking for an all-fuel stove that can cook using a variety fuels. It can be used with petrol/gasoline, gasoline or diesel, kerosene and aviation fuel. It has separate controls for each type of fuel and can also be used to alter the size of the flame which is a great feature. This stove also has a fuel line that sits flat on the ground and can be easily connected to the tank.
The Primus Omnilite is an excellent stove, but it needs maintenance to keep it running properly. In particular, it has a tendency to flare when priming which can be risky. This is a common problem with all stoves with liquid fuel that utilize a secondary spindle throttle on the stove's side to vaporize fuel instead of the generator coil.
It is also important to know that each fuel type needs the use of a different jet. This means that if you cook using kerosene, the jet hole needs to be smaller than when cooking on gas. This is a minor issue but it's worth mentioning.
MSR Whisper Light
The MSR Whisper Lite is one of the lightest, slimmest and most affordable amazon multi fuel stoves-fuel stoves. It is also simple to repair on the field. It is able to be used with liquid gas or canister fuel and includes attachments for both. The new model is lighter by 10% over its predecessor and the burner system has been redesigned to improve the distribution of heat. It's great for beginners or budget-minded backpackers.
It takes some time to set up, prime, and boil water but the whistler Lite is a reliable camping stove that will not let you down. The flame is powerful when cranked all the way up and can easily boil a liter of water within two minutes or less. The only downside is that it doesn't cook as well as other stoves.
This is why MSR has created the Dragonfly stove to become a pot that can be used as a simmering stove. It's designed in the same way as the whistler, however it is smaller and has more performance. However it's not as affordable as the whistler Lite. The Soto Amicus cookset and stove is an excellent alternative, providing similar features for half the price.

Coleman Sportster II

This makes it simple to use and a good option for backpackers, beginners who want to cut weight, and for those of us who keep a few spares in the van.
The stove is designed to burn Coleman's proprietary fuel (naptha gas, also referred to as white gas), this stove can be used with unleaded gasoline, as well. A gallon of gasoline can last as longer as a standard Coleman liquid fuel cylinder so you'll save money on fuel using this option.
Liquid fuel stoves have a learning curve as you'll need to properly pressurize and prime them before you can get a nice blue flame going. If you don't do it right the fuel could spill out, splash beyond the burner or explode. To master this, practice outside before you go on your excursion.
The stove will lose some performance and flame odor effectiveness if you use non-Coleman gasoline, but this is a tradeoff in its versatility. Be sure to buy unleaded gasoline, and not one that is enriched with methanol or ethanol (alcohol). These types of fuel can cause the unit's performance to degrade and even explode.
ATG Jiko

It's a compact, robust stove that burns gels, solid fuel tabs and alcohol with one nozzle.
